Everybody Says
On the impossibility of listening to yourself when so many other voices got there first. The quiet reframe: who taught me to become this?
Lyrics
[Chorus] Everybody says Listen to yourself. I don't know Who that is. Every voice Sounds like mine Until I believe it. [Verse 1] Some mornings I wake up Already agreeing With whoever Speaks first. The mirror Doesn't help. It only tells me I'm here. Not What I'm worth [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I've been Collecting Other people's Echoes. [Chorus] Everybody says Listen to yourself. I don't know Who that is. Every voice Sounds like mine Until I believe it. [Verse 2] My father Left a few sentences Behind. Teachers. Pastors. Lovers. Friends. Somewhere Between All of them... I disappeared. Or maybe I never arrived. [Pre-Chorus] If I strip away Everything I've been told... Who's left? [Bridge] Maybe I've been asking The wrong question. Not... "Who am I?" "Who taught me To become this?" [Chorus] Everybody says Listen to yourself. I don't know Who that is. Every voice Sounds like mine Until I believe it. [Outro] Maybe That's the static. Who's talking? Who's listening?
